Prior to the KGO broadcast – and two weeks before Michael Finney stopped by Collectible Coins & Jewelry – he sent intern, Krista Williamson, “undercover” to check out Bay Area gold buyers. Ms. Williamson reported to KGO viewers that she took some gold jewelry to [Collectible Coins & Jewelry], and "[Carter Collins] looked at it and spent a lot of time with it." In fact, Michael Finney’s report showed that the amount Mr. Collins offered Ms. Williamson was the highest offer made – significantly higher than one of his gold buying competitors. According to Ms. Williamson, "I found out you really need [to take your gold to an] expert to find out the value."

Carter Collins is just the sort of expert Ms. Williamson was referring to. His shop, Collectible Coins & Jewelry, has been on the Marin gold exchange scene for more than 20 years – buying and selling a variety of silver and gold coins and antique jewelry. Mr. Collins is a professional numismatist and a coin enthusiast who provides friendly, polite customer service along with his market expertise. He offers the greatest possible value, based on the current price of gold and other precious metals -- paying top dollar cash to buy your silver, gold coins, and jewelry.
